How to Make a Quick and Easy Apple Sensory Bin

Hello,
everyone.I am Tami from Kamp Kindergarten.It is hard to believe that
we are well into September. The first day of fall is less than 2 weeks away.Johnny Appleseed’s birthday is just over 2 weeks
away.

I am going to share an easy and
fun apple sensory bin for your little learners. This idea will work if you are
not allowed to use food items in sensory bins. This sensory bin will be great for autumn/fall and Johnny Appleseed's birthday.

I used a
round green tub from Dollar Tree, a green hula skirt from Dollar Tree, and
apples from JoAnn’s. You may substitute
other containers or greenery.I chose
the round green tub to make it appear like the top of an apple tree.You may substitute whatever container you
have.

Cut the
bottom part of the skirt from the waistband.You may use as much or as little as you wish depending on the size of you
container and how full you want it to be. I cut about half way across the skirt—about 15
inches. There will be a small area left at the top where all the strips are still
connected.

Complete the
cut to separate each strip. I left the strips long without additional cuts.You may wish to cut them in half lengthwise depending
upon the students in your class. You will definitely want to cut them in half if you have little
ones prone to wrapping things around their necks.

Put the
strips in the tub.You may choose to add
some type of fragrance to your tub such as apple or apple pie spices.You can put an apple or apple pie scented candle in the tub with the
strips.Store it overnight or longer in
a trash bag tied closed.If you have
little ones with allergies or asthma, you will probably want to skip the
fragrance.

You may use
other options for the greenery.Leaves
from silk greenery, green paper shreds for gift bags, or Easter grass will
work.I know.Easter grass in September? Well, I am sure I am not
the only teacher who has swooped in and grabbed Easter grass when it is clearance
priced the week after Easter.Even if
you don’t have Easter grass in September, there is probably a teacher in your
grade level who has a stash she snapped up from the clearance aisle.

Add
apples.You can add as many or as few as
you wish.

You can add various items to the sensory bin such as magnetic letters or numbers, bottle caps with numbers, sorting shapes, or building blocks with letters to supplement current skills covered.

Apple
themed learning activities are perfect for this sensory bin. You may already have
apple themed flashcards with various skills, matching cards, clip cards, and around
the room cards.The picture above shows the
sensory bin with pieces from Apple Number Puzzles, a FREE resource for you and your
little learners. Enjoy!
